I changed the text about Egyptians being Arabs. They are not, they see themselves as a separate ethnic group and different from Arabs.However, they are part of the Islamic world. Redchuck.gif ГенгисIs the Pope a Catholic? 21:55, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Sounds about right. On an unrelated note, if anybody knows enough to start a "Camp David accords" article, it'd be nice to have a summary to link. ~ Kupochama[1][2] 22:15, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

FWIW, I've added a history and pseudohistory section. There is an evil metric fuckton of pseudohistory about ancient Egypt that might be more on mission, and the material I added just scratches the surface. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 00:14, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
Unless someone objects soon, I think I'll fork away most of the dated material about the ouster of Mubarak. I'm not sure how on-mission it is anyway, and it seriously needs updating. There's a great deal to be done that seems more nearly on mission; the fate of the Library of Alexandria, Ottoman rule, the Rosetta Stone, do we have an article on Hypatia yet?
